Apparently people do get busted! Here's an item from the
Real Beer News:
DUFF BEER SCAM ON EBAY
An Australian woman has pleaded guilty to selling three
nonexistent cases of Duff brand beer on eBay, the Internet auction
site. Tara Edith Woodford, 28, pleaded guilty to three charges of
dishonestly gaining money by false pretenses. Prosecutor Gavin Burnett
told the court Woodford was paid a total of $1,511 (U.S.) by three
separate buyers after advertising the bogus beer on eBay. Duff is the
beer brand of choice for Homer Simpson and his friend in the
animated television series "The Simpsons."

Latest identity for ebay scammer is alexapam. Ebay may remove
the 475 scam items, though, before you get a chance to read this.
Leblanc 340 and 342 included at starting prices of £1.99;
location "Aberdeen, US".

Now going under the name alexapam, our little buddy evidentally
hasn't been caught yet. Check his listings quickly, because even if
eBay can't figure him out, we sure have!
Cheers!
